Here Are the Pictures

Taken on this afternoon when Auburn beat Alabama in a remarkable "comeback".

Pregame Pictures - relaxed but nervous.


Charlie on the phone with his sister, Amanda, regarding the upcoming game.


Charlie's Mother - just as ready as the rest of us to see this thing through.


Game's beginning and not a good start.

Andrew and John, not interested in the game.

WE WON!!!!!!!!


OMG!  WE DID IT!!!



TV SHOTS and THE SCORE









Watching the comments of the coaches


We made several phone calls, to Sarah, to Amanda (again), talked to Kate, Scott Parr, ummm
Ann called Steve - lines were tied up from cell phone to cell phone - 
and here, Lib is calling her next door neighbor, Belle - and began the call with a cheer,
"It's GREAT TO BE AN AUBURN TIGER!"

That's all.  Charlie wants my laptop to get to all his Auburn websites.

I Think "Blogger" Is an Alabama Fan!

I did what I said I'd do - posted during the game - but only a portion of it was actually saved as a draft.  I lost the second half of it.

I do have pictures which blogger will not let me download - what's up with that??

It was quite an afternoon - the pictures speak volumes - can't wait to show them - if I can.

WAR EAGLE!!  28-27!!

What I Plan to Post about this Afternoon

If you've read my blog posts in the past you might remember that I did this.  It was the night Laura Beth's contractions began, in the wee hours of February 8, 2010 - and I decided to post while she was in labor - complete with pictures:

Readers seemed to enjoy that particular post - and today - well - quite a bit of suspense surrounding the Auburn/Alabama game.  I was wondering how or even if to include it in my blog - what else can be said except "War Eagle!"  But I thought maybe I'd post as the game is being played.  It will be a play by play post, much like Laura Beth's labor with John's birth - and I can take pictures of all the contorted faces - the anxious faces - the happy and sad faces - within this living room - it could even be as risky taking pictures during the game as it was taking them of LB during her labor.  I could get hurt by someone - but I think I'll try it.  It will be as if I'm covering the game - or covering the Rhodes family watching the game.  And we don't even know yet, the outcome.  Yipes.   

Consider this an ad for my afternoon post to follow.
